Husbandry 101
How to make your wife cry for hours... When her stylist doesn't show up for her appointment, and she gets stuck with someone else, who proceeds to cut her hair a good 4" shorter than she asked -- even when she stopped replacement stylist before the top layer had been cut by saying "it's too short" -- let the first words out of your mouth when walking by her side out of said salon be, "It looks like shit." Gee tell me something I didn't know. Now I'm crying too hard to care that it's almost 10 p.m. and I haven't eaten. Guys -- tell her she looks good. That you'd still do 'er even if bald. I swear lying isn't that hard.



Hey boy take a look at me...let me dirty up your mind...



aww sweets, i feel so bad. i know how you feel thats why i let no one cut it anymore at all.=(

'you know, i'm so used to seeing you with longer hair, i couldn't picture you with it shorter. i don't know if i would have said 'short' if you'd asked me, but now that i've seen it, i think it looks really good. still going to have to get used to seeing you with short hair, but i like it'.

hyperwife had her hair cut so short once that you could see her scalp. the tip off should have been when the hairdemon said (didn't *ask*), 'i hope you like your ears' after a few snips.

You would look beautiful no matter what. And I'm sure you are always beautiful in Todd's eyes.

Men just have this way of saying the wrong thing at the wrong time. And then they get mad when you take it the way it sounded, and not the way they intended.

Maybe he was just trying to commiserate with your anger at the hair stylist and it didn't come out as intended.

You look mahvelous.

And for Todd--you are making the rest of us guys look stupid--learn to talk to your woman gaddammit!

awww, it's not bad, it's cute! And it'll grow out eventually. Try pinning up the front with those cute little plastic clippie barrette things. Have fun with it :)

It looks cute. :) And with my hair anyway, it grows much faster when it's short.

That's the great thing about hair... it keeps growing no matter WHAT you do to it!

I have very short hair and have had my fair share of bad haircuts. If Eric ever said anything like that, I'm sure it would just be him agreeing with how I obviously feel about it. Thankfully, he loves short hair! Hang in there, hair grows faster in warm weather ;)

oh honey. i once had a boyfriend say "oh my god. what did you do to your hair?" and i know exactly how you feel. i have never let anyone cut my hair since. i do it myself.

but it's the shape that's wrong on yours, not the length. buy a pencil curling iron and try curling it, like tea leone in flying blind. i bet it'll be *really* sexy on you. you have the face for it.

Oh man! I know of several stories where that's happened to other people- the stylist decides FOR you that she'd rather you have a shorter cut than you'd like. The worst one happened to an old roommate of mine, who went in to get her butt-length hair trimmed and the stylist decided to chop it to midback. She cried and her parents wanted to kill her.

I have long hair (midback now, as a stylist decided she wasn't too thrilled with waist length, and it's never grown back that way again), and you bet your ass I am squeamish as hell about going to ANY new person to get my hair done. The only hairstylist I trust lives in my hometown, so I only get it cut once or twice a year if I can get over there. I fear just walking into a strange place and coming out with "one of those cute short haircuts."

Hope it grows back fast and soon!
